MTV has a new show, called "Friendzone", a reality tv show where someone tries to bring a relationship with their best friend to the "next level" on national tv.

I don't know why I watched the first episode other then to torture myself (one of the reasons I don't like The Office because to me it has a lot of awkward humor), because I knew it was going to be awkward.

They take a friend, and they tell their best friend that they are going to go on a blind date for a TV show, and the "best friend" needs to act as a wing man, and then it is sprung on the best friend that there is no blind date, and the date is set up for the two of them.

It's so predictable... and my only question is "Why would you want to get shot down on national TV? Really?"

Anyone who tries to blindside me on national TV is no friend of mine. Of course in order for it to make it to TV the friend would need to sign a release - but I bet they did that when they thought they were the wingman.
